Aluminium Body Replicas

Aluminium Body Replicas

Celebrating the art of carrosserie and the very skilled process of panel-beating

For centuries, Italian artisans have created many of the most evocative and beautiful objects known to man. From the Renaissance period onwards, masterpieces were designed, painted and sculpted in Italy, that to this day transcend their mere presence as objects and evoke emotions that connect to the viewer on a personal level. The vast majority of these art objects are stationary; however, during a brief period in the 1950s, beauty and function connected in select Italian sports cars, transforming them into moving art.

Our Aluminium Body Replicas celebrate the art of carrosserie and the very skilled process of panel-beating, fully expressing the artistry and raw beauty of the body at a quarter the size of the original works. Each piece has been created from aluminium sheet by a skilled craftsman using traditional methodology, forming the panels with a hammer over a buck, exactly as the original full-size bodies were created by artists of the craft such as Scaglietti, Pininfarina, Touring and Zagato. The bucks over which each replica body is formed are machined using extremely accurate data, from digital scans of significant original cars. The investment in skilled man hours is significant, and so each piece will be made to order.

Since modelling Ralph Lauren’s Ferrari 250 GTO back in 2009, as each year goes by, we’ve fallen ever more in love with the perfect form and beauty of the body of this most important Ferrari icon. The form of the 250 GTO represents more than any other the quintessence of the Ferrari brand in the collective imagination. The longer you look and the deeper you go into every detail, the more perfect is the outcome of the creative work by Bizzarini, Forghieri and probably most importantly regarding the body, the finalisation of the design by Scaglietti.

We have created several perfectly detailed models of the car at 1:8, but to fully honour the beauty of the body form we have now created a hand hammered aluminium replica of the 250 GTO body at a quarter the size of the original.

Hammered Finish Aluminium Body Replica: $52,000 USD

250 Testa Rossa

  • Hammered Finish Aluminium Body Replica: $52,000 USD
  • The 250 Testa Rossa is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful body designs ever created
  • To fully honour the beauty of Scaglietti’s design, we have now created a hand formed aluminium replica of the Pontoon Fender Testa Rossa body at a quarter the size of the original masterpiece
  • Limited to an edition just of 25 pieces
  • 1:4 scale the body measures 1 metre / 39 inches long
  • Weighs approximately 5 Kg
  • Rolled and beaten from aluminium sheet by hand using traditional carrosserie skills
  • The hammered bare aluminium finish fully delivers the raw authentically engineered qualities of the piece, laced with Faberge Egg glamour.

The 250 Testa Rossa represents the pinnacle of this era as a true masterpiece of moving sculpture. Never before or since has an incredible combination of beauty and power led to as much on-track success and art-inspired emotion as with the 250 Testa Rossa. Driven by Scuderia Ferrari during five World Championship years from 1957-1962, the Testa Rossa will forever be known as the most successful sports racing model in Ferrari’s history, and the “pontoon fender” body style as the most beautiful version of the Testa Rossa, the greatest expression of automotive art to come out of Maranello.

We have created several perfectly detailed models of the 250 Testa Rossa at 1:8, but to fully honour the beauty of the body form we have now created a hand formed aluminium replica of the Pontoon Fender Testa Rossa body at a quarter the size of the original masterpiece. Each replica has been rolled and beaten from aluminium sheet using traditional carrosserie skills, forming the panels by hand and then test fitting them over a ‘trellis’, exactly as the original full-size bodies were created by Carozzerie Scaglietti in 1957.

The trellis over which the body is shaped, has been machined using extremely accurate data from a digital scan of a significant original Pontoon Fender 250 Testa Rossa. The investment in skilled man hours is significant, and so each piece will be made to order.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
  • A PAYMENT AUTHORISATION FOR THE OUTSTANDING AMOUNT OF YOUR PURCHASE WILL BE HELD DURING THE FULL PLAN PERIOD as security. This hold will be charged ONLY in the event a monthly payment is declined (the authorisation hold might appear as "Pending" on your credit card bill).
  • You must maintain a sufficient "Required Available Credit" amount on your credit card for both the full outstanding amount of your purchase and the monthly payment during the full period of the plan.
  • Your credit card issuer may charge you interest on amounts charged to your credit card unless you pay Your credit card balance in full each month.
  • In case we do not manage to reauthorize the remaining amount of the transaction, you will receive a notice email. In that case, you will have to promptly update your credit card details. In case your bank still refuses to reauthorize the outstanding amount, we will have to charge the full outstanding amount of the transaction at once from your credit card.
Splitit offers you a flexible way of paying for items in instalments, completely interest-free, by reserving the available line of credit on your credit card. Then, each month, according to your payment plan, Splitit collects the instalment amount and reissues the authorisation request for the remaining balance.

It is important to note that payments are still charged on your existing credit card. Splitit simply provides you the method to do this and information about the instalments. Here is an example of how the service works for a customer buying a £2,000 model in 4 instalments of £500 each:

Splitit obtains authorisation from the credit card company for the full purchase amount of £2,000. This is not a charge on the card; it is simply reserving £2,000 from the customer’s line of credit.
- The credit card company then charges the customer £500 for the first payment.
- During the second month, Splitit requests authorisation for the outstanding purchase amount of £1,500, and charges the customer the second installment of £500.
- This authorisation and charge process continues until the full £2,000 is collected - in this case, for 4 months.
No, this is an interest-free payment method with no additional fixed fees, service fees, interest or hidden fees of any kind.
No, your item will be processed after the first initial instalment and delivered as normal upon passing our Quality Control check at Head Office.
- You can pay using Splitit with a valid Mastercard or Visa
Nothing, no credit check is required if you use a Splitit instalment plan and there is no impact on your credit score. All the bank sees is the individual instalment charges each month. If one of your payment authorisations is declined, there is still no affect on your credit rating; it is simply a declined charge. The denial would simply accelerate payment of the remaining balance (unless you provide a different card which was not denied).
You can pay using Splitit with a Mastercard or Visa. Debit cards, American Express and pre-paid cards are not accepted.
The instalments appear on your statement as individual charge items with the name of 'Amalgam Collection'. These payments will appear monthly according to your instalment plan, with the same charge amount each time.
